Horse Dark As Night

All your girls they are riding white horses
In their pale skin with mirrors aligned
I know why you want those – they are easy
See the slaves climb the mountain of life
As for me there is one and she’s broken
See her come on a horse dark as night
She’s a flame – underneath she’s a love thing
And she lets me believe she is mine

I know why she is broken
I know why she is broken
It’s the mirror that lies to her face when she’s naked
So where is that pride
It’s the voice of her daddy inside

All the world is her bed smell like roses
Bit my lip pearly teeth frail and young
I know why she is brave and still loves me
Going hard on the waves of our time
As for me she’s the one and I’m hoping
See her come like the wildest of fires
In the plains of my heart she’ll be riding
Tween her legs be the horse dark as night

All your girls they are riding white horses
In their pale skin with mirrors aligned
I know why you want those – they are easy
See the slaves climb the mountain of life
As for me she’s the one and I’m hoping
See her come like the wildest of fires
In the plains of my heart she’ll be riding
Tween her legs be the horse dark as night
